Operating Details
IMPORTANT NOTE : All pressure must be relieved from the tank prior to loosening the swingbolt
assemblies. Failure to relieve residual tank pressure may cause the manway cover to blow open
which may result in serious personal injury or death.
Proper use of a safebolt assembly enables the controlled release of any residual tank pressure. When
operating a manlid assembly fitted with a safebolt, it is important to secure the safebolt first when closing
the manlid and release the safebolt last when opening the manlid.

NOTE : The above instructions are intended only as a guideline. For more detailed information, please refer
to our Manway Operating Instructions, reference OPIN13. Please contact sales@fortvale.com.

Data Manlid Seals
TM
Rubber Compounds
Seals moulded from rubber compounds are suitable for many duties. Advantages include :
! Easily cleaned
! Good resilience qualities
! Excellent sealing capabilities
! Economical to replace regularly
Please be aware that many of these compounds are suitable only for specific types of cargo. The temperature range of
each type of rubber must be observed. Please refer to the table overleaf for a general guide to product suitability. For
more specific advice, please contact our Sales team.
Composite Seals
Composite seals have been developed for general purpose tanks where the products carried can vary and therefore,
where a multi-purpose seal is required.
Braided - (NON-GAS TIGHT) PTFE impregnated fibre tightly braided around a silicone core and jointed into a solid ring.
Caution should be taken when fitting rigid seals. Fitting this seal is at the discretion of the tank builder. See note on
reverse for duty.
* NB (see over) This material is lubricant free but does contain a small percentage of residual wetting agents
essential to the PTFE dispersion with which this packing is impregnated. It should be noted that small amounts
of these wetting agents may leach during application.
Super Tanktyt - a virgin PTFE sheath bonded to three sides of a nitrile rubber core offering excellent sealing capabilities
and cleanliness together with suitability for a wide variety of cargoes. It remains gas tight at 6 Bar.
Advantages include:
! Easily cleaned
! Excellent resilience qualities
! Excellent sealing capabilities
! Does not become porous
! Suitable for a wide variety of cargoes and a broad temperature range
Overall, the ”Super Tanktyt” is the ideal sealing solution for the chemical industry. Its rubber core gives flexibility to
ensure a gastight seal and its PTFE envelope gives optimum protection in hazardous cargo applications.

Fort Vale rubber manlid seals have a unique colour-coding system to identify the seal material. The appropriate colour is marked on the outer edge of the seal as
indicated in the table below.

We are able to respond to a variety of specialized demands from all market sectors and the following is a sample of
ancillary products which may be incorporated into the Fort Vale manlid range. Please enquire with our Sales department
if your specific requirement is not detailed below.
Weld-in Adaptors
A wide range of adaptors may be welded into the cover to accommodate additional fittings, such as a relief valve,
sampling valve, fill aperture etc. Fittings available include BSP, NPT, RJT, SMS, DIN 11851 and flanges. Please
discuss your individual needs with our Sales team.
Insulation
For the transportation and storage of heated products, insulation may be incorporated into the manlid cover, giving
improved heat-retaining properties and increasing the tank’s overall efficiency.
Breather Assembly
A stainless steel sintered disc holder with venting cap can be fitted for the purpose of filtering air entering the tank
and preventing internal pressure build-up. This is especially suited to the handling of hydrogen peroxide.
Vacuum Vent
A vacuum vent valve is available as a catastrophic vacuum relief provision for road tankers. The valve is especially
suited to hygienic situations. Various vacuum settings are available and an optional gauzed cowl may be supplied.
Safety Grille
A range of designs is available depending upon the level of protection required - from preventing debris entering the
tank to guarding against operator injury from tank internal mechanisms. Please discuss your individual requirements
with our Sales team.
Sight Glass
A customer-supplied sight glass may be expertly welded into the manlid dome for a nominal fee.
Dipstick Holder
Bracketry may be fitted to the neckring at the time of manufacture if specified at the time of order.
Customer Logo
A facsimile of your logo may be included in the lid marking for a nominal charge.
Polishing
Clean, weld-free lines to underside of cover with a high grade electro polish giving a standard surface finish of 10-30
microns Rtm. Hand polished finish to ultra high grade specification available on request.
